Last year at E3 we saw a single player demonstration for Halo 2. This year we saw a multiplayer demonstration at E3. The SMG has changed during the last year. Last year, it had the ammo clips on the bottom of it. This year it has the ammo clips on the side of it. Also, last year it had a different crosshair. This year it has the same crosshair as the AR. Do you like the changes that have happened to the SMG, or do you like the way it was last year?

the crosshairs in the e303 demo were combined SMG crosshairs. i think it still may end up being like that... all your crosshairs crossover... sounds cool at least. and isnt it still a little different than the ARs crosshairs? i cant be certain, but i always assumed it was after e303.

i think however the weapon turns out, it will kick ass. and the clips on the side? really! thats awesome! SMG is the shiznit.

Of course its changed, it's been more then a year, everythings changed from the demo we saw at E3 2003.

I t would be hard not to change something when you still have over a year until release.

Its multiplayer and single player, major difference between the two.

the clips are on the side so he can reload with one hand by just throwing them off then slamming the gun against his belt to click in a new clip

yeah, i noticed they have changed too.. Look at the renders, then any screen shot where someone is holding an SMG and the changes are huge...

Also, it isnt spam if it is about Halo 2, the SMG, in this case, is about Halo2, so how could this be spam

Apparently someone needs to re-read the definition of spam . Who cares? Obviously the people responding. If anything, your post is spam; quit posting spam.

Though I do believe the SMG's discrepancies between '03 and '04 have already been acknowledged, good eye regardless.

Well the clip has been on the side of the SMG since the FIRST friggin render of it that the public saw. And the cross hair at E3 was not the official one! it was the AR one. I remember even reading that they were placement holders! notice how everything on the HUD was the same as Halo 1 cept for the shield? So no there really wernt that many changes. While duel weilded the smg still looks the same.

Dont let the friggin excitment impair your vision! EAT A SNICKERS BAR! im sorry i just had to say that.
